Hi all loads still to add to this part, slow going but I do feel I'm getting there

I will admit due to my abysmally poor modelling skills I've missed some pe out, as a bit of fun can you spot out the bits I've missed out.

I think PE is pretty much beyond my ability now so I can't see me buying any more.

Hi all here is the next update,This sub assy is finished (well as much as I'm prepared to do) I like the unpainted brass standing out against the weathered painted parts, i just wish I had the skills to use all the PE (although to be honest I don't think you would notice the bits I've left out)

Does anyone know did these cranes have windows in the top (I mean I don't think they stood out on those railings to hoist the ships boats on board) I can't find photos of the cranes details, I would think it would be a fairly simple job to add them if they were there.

The PE part is a VAST improvement on the kit Crane. I can't see any windows.

Superb work with the crane! Years ago I used to wonder at the whole PE thing ... that is until I started seeing finished results. Definitely worth the effort, the added detail is so superior to the kit moulded part.

Hi all sorry not posted for ages but had problems loging in (kept getting messages that site was down) anyway i finally got the pompoms done on this part (get less and less modelling time these days) hopefully will not have problems loging in any more.
